#1 - LIVING WORD

 

Join Lauren Harper as she fights the fight of faith—living by God’s Word as she goes throughout her day. One will quickly find that Lauren’s world is far from perfect. After sin and brokenness threaten to ruin her faith, God’s Word is shown to be living and active and points her to the Hero of the story—Jesus Christ. Lauren finds healing at the cross and in turn becomes an instrument of healing to that which is broken. In short, this film is ultimately about the Living Word from the Father—the Lord Jesus Christ, the One whom all of God’s Word testifies to. A touching and impactful story of faith, hope and love. Sin and brokenness breaks a heart but the Gospel restores.

PILOT - JESUS SHALL REIGN

This was the pilot episode (launched in 2016) to help get the word out about Nicol Films. We took footage shot for a music video of the Nuckols Regiment playing Isaac Watts famous hymn, “Jesus Shall Reign” to launch our videos. This is considered our pilot episode, but the first “official” Nicol Films production is “Living Word”

Footage is of Duluth MN and Lake Superior shot in 2012... Enjoy!
